MD#more informatiomn has come to light about 3 year old
Syrian boy Alan Kurdi whose body was found recently washed
up on a beach in Turkey. Refugee advocates now say his
families ultimate goal was to reach asylum in Canada.
VERSE:
He was cD#married from the water by a sC#oldiG#er
And the D#mpicture screams a thousand different wC#ordsG#
He was rD#munning from the terror with his fC#athG#er
Who D#monce believed that nothing could be woC#rseG#
So he’d D#mhanded a man two thousand precious dC#ollG#ars
The way you’d D#mrest a bird in a lion’s open C#jawG#
And he tD#mold the boys that Canada was C#waitG#ing
That there was hBope upon her golden shC#ores
But at nBight he said a quiet prayer into the wC#ind
CHORUS:
Oh CBanaF#da, if you can hC#ear me D#mnow
WF#on’t you Bopen up your aF#rms towards the sC#ea?
F#Oh CBanaF#da, if you can hC#elp me D#mout
AF#ll I ever wBanted was a safe pF#lace for my C#fam-Bi-lF#y F# C# D#m B F# C#
VERSE:
Well the D#mdays were long but the nights were even lC#ongG#er
And the D#mbaby boys never left their mothers’ sC#ideG#
But the D#mboat was small and the waves were getting sC#tronG#ger
And they begBan to fear they’d not survC#ive
So the D#mfather said “We gotta hold each other tC#ighG#ter
I’m not D#mlosing everything I love tonC#ighG#t
And we’ve D#mcome so far I know that out there sC#omewG#here
There’s a plBace where we won't have to fear for our lC#ives”
But as he hBeld onto the side of the boat he lF#ooked up at the sC#ky
CHORUS:
F#Oh CBanaF#da, if you can hC#ear me D#mnow
WF#on’t you Bopen up your aF#rms towards the C#sea
F#Oh my CBanaF#da, if you can hC#elp me D#mout
The F#sea is chBurning I think we’re gF#oing dC#oooBoooF#ooooC#ooooD#moown B F# C#
F#Oh CBanaF#da, if you can hC#ear me D#mnow
Won’t you Bopen up your aF#rms towards C#me
Oh, BanyF#one please hC#elp me D#mout
All I ever wBanted was a safe pF#lace for my fC#amilyByyyF#yyyyC#yyy D#m B F# C#
OUTRO:
There’s a mD#million ways to justify your C#feaG#r
There’s a mD#million ways to measure out your C#worG#ds
But the D#mbody of Alan being lF#aid upon the sC#and
Tell me hBow do you live with that?
